Canglong Immortal City, Wanda Commercial, Canglong Branch...

"Ling, has there been any news from Mr. Ji after more than a month?" Yun Qianshan asked with great concern.

At the top, Ling Wu rubbed his forehead and said helplessly, "Not only is there no news from Fellow Daoist Ji, but we also can't contact Elder Li and Elder Yang."

"I have reported the situation here to headquarters, but... due to the constant pressure from the Demon Temple and other demonic sects, headquarters has no time to attend to us."

"Even many Nascent Soul and Gold Core cultivators in our Canglong Branch have been temporarily transferred to Zhongsheng Shenzhou."

"But there is one thing we can be relieved about."

Ling Wu paused and continued, "Yesterday evening, the Holy Spirit Lamp that I applied for from headquarters arrived."

"I put the contract imprints of Fellow Daoist Ji, Elder Li, and Elder Yang on the Holy Spirit Lamp, and the lamp was still shining, which means that at least their lives are safe for now."

"As for their specific locations, we will need the headquarters' Heavenly Mechanism Array Disk to investigate."

"However, Fellow Daoist Ji, Elder Li, and Elder Yang have limited authority, so I cannot apply to headquarters to use the Heavenly Mechanism Array Disk."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qianshan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Knowing that Mr. Ji and Elder Li are still alive is enough!"

"As long as we continue to communicate with their identity tokens, we will eventually receive a response."

Saying this, Yun Qianshan bowed slightly to Ling Wu.

"Ling, I will inform Mr. Ji's family about his survival first, so..."

Buzz...

Just as Yun Qianshan was about to leave, his identity token suddenly started flashing urgently.

The moment he picked up the token, a look of joy appeared on Yun Qianshan's face.

"It's Mr. Ji!"

---

On the other side...

Inside the cave, Ji Boying had finished communicating with Yun Qianshan.

Originally, he contacted Yun Qianshan to inquire about the safety of his two wives and whether the flying boat had safely arrived at Canglong Immortal City after he was ambushed that day.

Secondly, he wanted to report his situation and hoped that Canglong Immortal City could send some cultivators to assist him.

However...

According to Yun Qianshan, it seemed that the Demon Clan had made a big move, and half of the fighting power in Canglong Immortal City had been withdrawn by headquarters. They were too busy to take care of themselves, let alone spare anyone to be sent to him.

In addition, the whereabouts of Li Pu and Yang Qingshan, who had left the flying boat midway, were still unknown.

Ling Wu wanted him to look for them on his way back to Canglong Immortal City.

Upon hearing the current situation, Ji Boying couldn't help but show a hint of helplessness on his face.

This invasion by demonic cultivators not only affected Dongcang Xuanzhou but also had a significant impact on Zhongsheng Shenzhou.

Is this world finally going to return to the slaughter and survival of the fittest, just like the novels he had read?

Hoo...

Ji Boying took a deep breath, calmed his thoughts, and then turned his gaze to Li Yueyao.

At this moment, she had changed into a new robe.

Purple.

Apart from being enchanting, it also had a unique charm.

"You haven't finished answering my previous question," Ji Boying looked directly into her eyes and said indifferently, "What did you do to me while I was unconscious?"

Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Li Yueyao chose to confess.

She revealed everything she had done during this period of time, including borrowing Ji Boying's Yang Qi and blood to assist in her cultivation.

The latter, during the time when she was unconscious, was forcibly absorbing blood and energy fifteen times a day on average. There were even several instances where she couldn't control it and her blood and energy were almost depleted.

If it weren't for the critical moment when she used the Kidney Treasure to save her life, she was afraid she would never wake up.

No wonder every time she absorbed that hot energy, there was a force that forcibly took it away. It turns out it was this woman's doing!

If it weren't for her interference, she would probably have woken up long ago!

"I was wrong in this matter. Without the consent of the young master, I forcibly took his blood and energy. If the young master wants to punish me, I won't say a word!" Li Yueyao knelt down in front of Ji Boying, bowing her head apologetically.

"Is that so..." Ji Boying looked at her coldly.

In his eyes, there seemed to be a flicker of killing intent.

If it were any other female cultivator, he would not hesitate to kill her at this moment.

Even if the other party had given him attributes, he would still kill her.

But...

If it were Li Yueyao, he hesitated a bit.

Li Yueyao possessed the Mysterious and Alluring Body, which brought her more benefits in terms of communication than Ye Qingqing of the same level.

In addition...

She could also help him gain experience in swordsmanship.

Now, the means he had to save his life were talismans and physical fitness. As for the third, it was swordsmanship!

If his swordsmanship didn't improve, or if the benefits Li Yueyao brought him were not high, Ji Boying wouldn't be so conflicted.

But...

According to the current progress, with the assistance of the Immortal Ascension Pill and the Kidney Treasure, he could achieve the Sword Intent Realm in at most two years!

By then, the power that swordsmanship could unleash would even surpass that of talismans!

Moreover, compared to talismans, swordsmanship was more suitable for fighting and killing. With the combination of physical fitness, crossing a major realm was not a difficult task.

With this thought in mind, Ji Boying had already made up his mind.

He stared at Li Yueyao, and in his icy gaze, there was a hint of sharp killing intent.

"I can give you a chance to live." Ji Boying spoke indifferently.

"As long as you serve me as your master from now on, never betray me, I won't kill you!"

"Moreover... I can continuously provide you with Yang energy to help you ascend the Great Dao!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yueyao's eyes flickered.

With just a moment of hesitation, she took out her own Soul Command Token from her storage bag.

"I believe the young master is not unfamiliar with this token. This is the unique Soul Command Token of the Phoenix Cry Pavilion. As long as you possess this token, you can control the soul of the original owner of the token and even control their life and death."

"However..." Li Yueyao paused and said firmly,

"Yueyao has three requests. If Young Master Ji agrees, Yueyao is willing to offer the Soul Command Token."

"If you don't agree, Yueyao... would rather die than submit!"

She even wants to set conditions?!

Who does she think she is?!

Although Ji Boying was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart, he still signaled for her to continue.

"First, if the young master and I can safely return to the Azure Dragon Immortal City, I hope the young master can redeem me and free me from the constraints of the Phoenix Cry Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, Ji Boying almost didn't hesitate at all and directly agreed,

"Since I have recognized you as my master, naturally I will redeem you and sever the karmic ties of the Phoenix Cry Pavilion."

"However... you will have to bear the cost of redemption yourself. Of course, if you can't afford it now, it doesn't matter. You can pay it back slowly in the future."

Li Yueyao felt a slight joy when she heard Ji Boying agree so readily, but when she heard the latter part of his statement, she couldn't help but inwardly criticize him.

If it were someone else, they would probably be fighting to help her redeem herself at this moment. Why would they make her pay?

But...

After only complaining in her heart for a moment, she continued speaking...
